About the book

Seashaken Houses by Tom Nancollas is a history book for adult readers.

The enthralling history of Britain's historic rock lighthouses, exploring the enduring appeal of these magnificent, isolated sentinels, now in paperback Lighthouses are striking totems of our relationship to the sea. For many, they encapsulate a romantic vision of solitary homes amongst the waves, but their original purpose was much more utilitarian than that.

Today we still depend upon their guiding lights for the safe passage of ships. Nowhere is this truer than in the rock lighthouses of Great Britain and Ireland which form a ring of twenty towers built between 1811 and 1904, so-called because they were constructed on desolate rock formations in the middle of the sea, and made of granite to withstand the power of its waves.
